"Think of this speaker less as a beefy soundbar, and more as a large speaker system that delivers a big home cinema experience, albeit scaled down into a form factor that meets a niche that's hitherto been poorly catered for."
The LX-7 is a stylish, high-performance passive loudspeaker, custom-built in Australia for screen sizes 75 inch and above. Featuring left, centre and right channels, it can be combined with surround speakers and an AVR/processor to create a genuine, immersive cinema soundscape without the need for virtual or 'bouncing' effects. The sleek design requires minimal space above or below your screen and redefines expectations of what a "soundbar" can achieve.

"When Krix does a soundbar, it’s not like all the others. This makes almost all other such speaker systems look like toys. Highly configurable, and offered in three standard lengths – 75-, 85- or 100-inch – the LX-7 Linear LCR Passive is a monster of a thing. Weighing 30kg in its biggest guise, this Australian super-speaker delivers an incredible, virtually distortion-free sound that goes up to wild volume levels – but you’ll need a suitably serious partnering amplifier though, as this is passive. Properly set-up, it’s an object lesson in what’s possible from a single, full-range centre speaker."
"The LX-7 has all the ingredients to become the go-to product for small to mid-size media rooms nationwide. If you want serious home cinema sound without filling your room with cumbersome floorstanding speakers, or cutting large holes in your walls only to find your cavity isn't deep enough, then the LX-7 is the obvious choice. It's classic Krix cinema quality in a neo-Krix form factor. Finally, soundbars can be exciting."

Historically, movie enthusiasts have had to make a choice between a sleek soundbar-shaped speaker that fits nicely under a screen, or a powerful and dynamic movie performance. That compromise no longer needs to be made!
Designed and manufactured in Australia, the LX-7 has been engineered for lounge rooms, media rooms, games rooms and dedicated home theatres. High power handling and sensitivity ensure movie soundtracks, games and music are delivered with incredible power and dynamic range.
Krix engineers have been hard at work, scaling technology from Krix’s dedicated home cinema range into the shallow (142mm deep), heavily braced enclosure. Three 90 x 90 Krix short-throw waveguides significantly improve dispersion characteristics and ensure clear separation of dialogue, effects and music, putting you at the centre of your favourite movies, concerts or TV series. The 165mm (6.5") bass driver incorporates a huge 50mm (2") voice coil, reinforcing the fact that this isn’t your "usual" soundbar.
Using the included bracket, the LX-7 can be mounted flush against the wall or at adjustable angles up to 15 degrees for optimal sound dispersion.
The LX-7 is toneally matched to all Krix surround and overhead speakers.
